Will Crysis 2 be balanced for lean ?

casual gamers play wii sports not call of duty 0.o07pops07

....:shock:.....Nope, not at all casual games that dont play hard and complicated fps or rpgs and rts play cod. How in the world you will be considered a casual gamer if you played only sports games? :lol: Please , your impression about casual gamers is deeply incorrect, do you really think that casual gamers dont play fps or violent games? You just insulted all casual gamers out there.

What do you say? Will Crysis 2 have lean and prone?Gooeykat

To be honest thats what i think too. Every developer out there focuses on consoles. Crytek aint no diffirent, they can afford to dissapoint the pc gamers but not the console crowd where they make 2 console versions on an engine designed for the consoles. It will be insane for every company to make seperate version or make the pc version more complicated in control and gameplay just for the pc. Judging by what resources crytek has and the time they got, it likely they wont take any chances and just make a multiplatform game. Come on, we have seen bigger developers doing it. There is ofcourse the chance of the game not being so dumbed down but if it sucseeds on the consoles, the developers will keep on this train and they will completly consolize crysis 3. Thats why i said what i said. I bet that many crysis fans are raging now but sorry, crytek is no diffirent neither they have the amount of time and resources and developers to do something as massive as making a seperate pc version. Once they get the money from the consoles, they will not care much anymore just like all the other developers out there.

^Yeah sure and all they do is show us console footage, i highly doubt they will manage to make 2 seperate versions one for consoles and one for pc before 2011 that is with the amount of work that kind of game requires. It seems impossible to me not just for crytek but every developer out there plus not worh the trouble. If that happens i wouldnt be suprised if the game came out first for consoles and later for pc or first for pc and much later for consoles. But the "seperate versions before 2011" sounds way too hard for me let alone the fact that as the time goes by, more and more devs take the easy train of console focus in their project development.dakan45

I dont know, bad company 2 was not, i bet metro 2033 will not have either and it was mainly a pc developed game. Wherever crysis 2 will have prone depends on how much attention they will put on the game. I dont know about crysis 2 but i can tell you that crysis 3 will not be balanced for lean. Anyway crysis was one of the few games that leaning was actually pretty damn good.dakan45

And yet you dont get the idea why they are showing console footage? Common practice, if you saw what the pc version looked like then as a 'business' you would not want the 2 versions side by side. Also all the 'console' footage is not as it exactly seems. What until it's closer to release date then you will see what i mean :)ducati101

remember though, BC2 was made for the consoles and ported to the PCpete_merlin

None of us know what Crytek has in mind. I suppose we'll find out what the focus of Crysis 2 will be soon. If it's focused more on multiplayer, then perhaps there won't be lean/prone. But if it's still focused on singleplayer (Crysis/Warhead) like I think it is then lean and prone will most likely still be there. I've never seen Crysis as a significant multiplayer game. So, I'm inclined to think Crytek will keep lean/prone in the game since it's very integral to the singleplayer gameplay.

The graphics from the first game was amazing. Lets see how this turns out, maybe with some actual gameplay too? ;-)Anarchist-TKC-1

[QUOTE="Gooeykat"] Crysis is being designed with consoles in mind first, PC second. So I say no. Some will say this is not true, but I would point them to Cervat Yerli's comments regarding the first game and his disappointment in sales and piracy. Crytek will not, WILL NOT, take any chances on this. Consolers are stoked about this coming to their platform and Crytek cannot afford to disappointment them. They can however afford to disappoint PC gamers.Gooeykat

Perhaps a clue can be had with Crytek's track record on the different versions of Far Cry (consoles and pc). I know the pc version had the V key for prone and Q/E for lean. Far Cry: Instincts should've had prone as well. Not sure about lean. Far Cry: Vengeance for Wii? I have no clue.

Insticts had dual weilding and not weapon sights aiming, also diffiernt story, eg you could turn into a mutant and use meele attacks, plus health regeneration and a penknife. Diffirent story, levels, etc,etc. If thats how diffirent the console version and the pc version will be, then DO NOT WANT!!! I wanna buy one game not 2 diffirent ones.dakan45

At least Crytek did keep prone on the XBox version of Far Cry. That should give a clue on whether prone/lean will be kept or not. Since the PC will have lead and Crysis is as much a stealth game as a run n gun FPS, I'm leaning (pardon the expression) towards prone/lean being retained.

I'm sure Crytek will retain prone and make sure it has its limitations. Even in Crysis and Warhead, going prone is almost suicidal against the aliens since they can home in awfully fast at the point where gunfire was coming from.

i extremely doubt prone, but leaning is a possibility, by the looks of crysis 2 the action will be extremely fast paced, and using prone would just slow down the action, it wouldnt feel like a crysis game.
